Figure 6From: Genetic, histochemical and biochemical studies on goat TSE cases from Cyprus Immunohistochemical detection of PrP Sc in autonomic nervous system and placenta. A Celiac and mesenteric ganglion complex of a scrapie infected goat (ZYP30) with moderate accumulation of PrPSc. Besides a perineuronal staining reaction, intracellular PrPSc deposits can be seen in associated satellite cells (arrows) as well as in multifocal glial cells (arrowheads); mAb 6C2; bar 20 µm; B Mild PrPSc accumulations in trophoblasts (*) and epithelial cells (arrow) in placental cotyledons of goat ZYP27. M: maternal parts; F: fetal parts; mAb 6C2, bar 10 µm.Back to article page
